temperature of +35C for the 24h

+5C

and +40C

without exceding an average

Humidity from between 30% and 90% without water condensations.

5.3 Connection to to the power supply.
IMPORTANT: This machine must be connected to a socket with ground connection.
TS-10 is equipped with a 230v and 0.12 kW single phased engine to be connected to a
230v power supply. It must be connected to an only power supply in the indicated source.

5.4 Responsibilities
TS 10 is according to the European regulations and normative for the manufacturing of
machinery.
In case of an accident due to a negligentuse of the machine by the operative for not
bearintg the safety use rules exposed on this book, PRADA NARGESA, S.L. will not
accept any responsibility.

7.2 Introduction
This book has been designed as a tool for the user of the machine Welding Positioner TS 10, since
it has got important information about its use and peculiarities. Therefore it is advisable to follow
step by step all points detailed in this manual for the correct comprehension of the machine
performance.
7.3 Feeding of the machine TS 10
In order to feed up the machine, just put the Start switch in the plugged position. Then it will appear a
message like the one below on screen:

Picture 11. Activation message of the TS-10

7.4 Activation of the TS 10

In order to proceed properly, please, press the ESC key. Then and just in case you finish feeding up
the machine, as it has been described before it will appear an initialization message in the LCD
display, while the machine is getting position in 0 absolute.

Once there, a label like the next one will show up on the screen:

TURNING TO THE RIGHT

POSITION 0
Picture 3. Rest screen of TS-10

This is the default mode to start the control. Now its performance is completely manual, that is to
say, the welding plate turns when the pedal is pressed. When the pedal is no longer pressed the
positioner stops turning.
The turning direction is previously set by pressing the key according to the desired direction. (Left
or Right).
If in this moment we press the pedal, the positioner starts turning in the indicated direction while it
shows on screen the the speed and current angle like in the label below:

You can change the turning speed pf the welding plate by adjusting the potentiometer located
in the upper left part.
7.5 Continous welding memories
To accede this manu just press the key for Continous welding. Once you do it, it will appear on
screen a list with the ten available memories. The selection of the proper memory is made by using
the selection arrows (upwards and downwards) and then press OK.

you do this, a list with the 10 existing discontinuous memories will show up on screen. The selection

When a welding operation ends, the plate will go again to the starting point of the memory currently
selected.
7.7. Robot mode
When pressing the Robot Key we are indicating the that the positioner will work with an outer
welding robot.In this case, the manual performance is cancelled. However the discontinuous and
continuous welding memories keep on performing exactly like in the Positioner Mode.
The only difference lies on how the Positioner operates, which is explained below.
The positioner will go to absolute 0 or to the begining of the memory to be made.
When pressing the pedal and let it loose again the welding cycle begins. The relay activates for the
robot to be placed in the starting point, make the linear welding and gives us the sign as it is in
position to start the rotary welding.
Once it is detected that the robot is in that position, the second relay is used to indicate the moment
required for the robot to carry out the welding operation or not.
When the welding is finished, the starting relay is cancelled so the robot goes to the rest position.
The positioner will go back again in absolute 0 or Starting welding point.
N.B. : Remember all signs coming from the Robot must be Potential free.
Parameters start time and overlap also works in robot mode.
7.8. Memories of continuous welding in robot mode.
To accede this menu it is necessary to press the Continuous Welding key. Once it is made is
appears on screen a list with the ten available memories. The selection of the proper memory will
be carried out with the selection arrows. (Up and down arrows) and the pressing of the OK key.
